Chris Baker

Buccaneers expected to sign Chris Baker

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the favorite to land free agent defensive lineman Chris Baker, reports Jenna Laine of ESPN.

What It Means:

Baker projects to be a full-time defensive tackle with the Buccaneers after serving as a versatile 3-4 end in Washington. He and Gerald McCoy would form an imposing interior front in Tampa Bay.

The Buccaneers finished last season ranked 13th in schedule-adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points allowed per play.
